Presidents and First Ladies Trivia

[L Verge]

Now, here's a trivia question about the Fifth Avenue Hotel - There were two shops on the ground floor that were favorites of Abraham Lincoln. You don't have to know their names, but do you know what items Lincoln purchased from each (without cheating)?

I shall guess a hat and a pair of boots?

You are correct about the hat store - Knox Hat Store. The owner offered the President a new hat free in exchange for his old one.

The second store is going to be rather surprising, I think.
